Shannon Price Requests Gary Coleman Ashes Tossed Over the Train Tracks or Under the Train?

The "What'choo talkin' 'bout Shannon" plot thickens as Gary Coleman's ex-wife, Shannon Price, suggests his ashes to be tossed on train tracks due to his love for trains. Gary Coleman was cremated Thursday night and is locked up pending a court decision on where his ashes would reside according to TMZ.

A will confirmed Coleman did not want a funeral, a wake nor a ceremony in his honor after passing away. Who can argue with that? Not his parents. In Coleman's case there just may have been a couple of pitchforks with Shannon Price's name on them. But why?

Could it have been her desire to claim Gary Coleman's property after his death? Could it have been the 2007 hand written will that deems as thin as ice? Could have been the 911 call where Price didn't want to get "as" involved in Coleman's life and death situation but was flexible enough to take a Gary Coleman deathbed photo?

The recap is simple, in a Lifetime movie way. But as for the will that fell from the Utah sky, the lack of notery and legal filing along with being divorced dictates it's validity - in a negative fashion. Let's be quaint and to the point. Any person that knows how to copy a name can come up with all forms of convenient requests. Never create a will without a notery before legally filing and revising after a divorce, it's a given, the golden rule - time will tell if this rule remains golden.

So, what's next in Gary Coleman's potential "Boxcar Willie" ashes? That answer is blowing in the "What'choo'choo 'talkin' 'bout" wind - ashes to ashes - track to track. The courts will release a decision soon whether or not Coleman's ashes will be tossed under any train.

Shannon Price, in the eyes of many, has forfeited her rights to Coleman's final decisions due to not assisting fully in his life and death situation. Each moment that did not pass could have made all the difference in prolonging Coleman's life - it's a given. Question is, did she wait long enough to assure he wouldn't pull through before calling 911? More questions than answers.

Gary Coleman was best known for playing Arnold Jackson in the 1980s sitcom Diff'rent Strokes.
